    Unhappy

     



    Unless your running a center console or something unique the base width for seats 35 thru 48 is 44" at the base of the seat bottom, and right around 47" at the top of the seat backs in both Fords and Chevys. Model A's pinch down pretty tight in front and 40" is all the room you have. I think your going to have a hard time finding a powered 20" wide seat. If you do find one please let us know what it is out of. Might want to double check the width and see if you can get 22" out of each side that will open up a lot more seats that are available. Be sure not to measure across on the floor, Then body widens quite a bit from the floor level to the seat height? What ever its worth.
